KRUPS Flight Computer: common questions
What microcontroller does the KRUPS Flight Computer use?
The KRUPS Flight Computer is built around the Pico_2_W, from the Raspberry Pi family.
How big is the KRUPS Flight Computer PCB?
The KRUPS Flight Computer measures 127 × 64.4 mm, has 6 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the KRUPS Flight Computer?
108 components, from 49 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the KRUPS Flight Computer design files?
From the krups/RockSatX-GHOST-Hardware repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the KRUPS Flight Computer design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with krups. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the KRUPS Flight Computer without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Raspberry Pi firmware against it before you order a PCB.
